Morrow attended Miami Sunset High School, but dropped out during his senior year to fully pursue a career in acting. He started studying and struggled for almost a decade trying to find a breakthrough role – he made several stage appearances and co-founded the theater company Naked Angels in 1986. During this period he had to work various jobs, including delivering balloons and bartending. In 1990, he became part of the award winning television show “Northern Exposure” as the lead character. He stayed with the show until 1995 when he decided to pursue big screen roles.
Morrow became part of the film “Quiz Show” in 1994, which would earn him critical acclaim playing the congressional investigator Dick Goodwin who was out to uncover information about a1950s game show scandal. The opportunities presented to him would help elevate his net worth significantly, as he then played the sports agent brother of Albert Brooks’ character in “Mother”. He was considered for the film “The Island of Dr. Moreau”, but then in 2000 he directed and starred in the film “Maze” which is about an artist with Tourette syndrome; the independent film won the AFI Festival New Directions Award and was an honorable mention at the San Jose Film Festival. He would then found the production company Bits and Pieces. He continued his directorial work over the next few years, mostly directing episodes of shows such as “Joan of Arcadia” and “Oz”, but building his net worth.
Two years later, Rob became part of the series “Street Time” in which he played Kevin Hunter, and he also appeared in the television movie “Custody” before appearing in “The Bucket List” as the doctor to Jack Nicholson. In 2005, he was cast in the series “Numb3rs”, starring alongside Judd Hirsch and David Krumholtz, staying with the show for five years, and then in 2010 signing with another series – “The Whole Truth”. The show was short lived even although Rob filmed 13 episodes. One of his latest projects is “Atlas Shrugged Part III”. All of these projects have helped in raising his net worth.
For his personal life, it is known that Rob has been married to actress Debbon Ayer since 1998, and they have a daughter. He also mentioned that he enjoys skiing. Morrow also does a bit of charity work. He is a part of the Board of Directors of project ALS, research into the neuro-degenerative disease.
